Just had a thought and I have no idea if it would work but you might try
something like:

#declare C=1;
#while  (C<5)
#declare R=seed(C);
object...

This will change the seed value for each iteration of the loop.
Pov might also choke to death on it and it may not work. It was
just a thought I had and is untested.
